The quotes and OJPAC statement below are regarding the proposed un-American, veto-powered monitor against the Board of Education at the East Ramapo Central School District in Rockland County, New York:

Lohud Editorial 12/14/15: It's important to note that Sipple and his colleagues did not mention any large-scale misappropriation of funds or potential criminal wrongdoing in East Ramapo."

Reporter Adrienna Sanders 12/15/14: After Monday's meeting, state monitor John Sipple told ...me "I found no fraud" in the distribution of funds in East Ramapo. "People can disagree about the appropriate use of funds but I didn't see anything that crossed the line into fraud."

OJPAC Statement: "Based on the findings, it appears that a veto-powered monitor to be appointed for East Ramapo is not meant to stop fraud, because no fraud by the current board members has been found. The un-American monitor is not about oversight, because East Ramapo is already overseen by three state agencies. The un-American monitor is not about programs that have been cut, because - according to the report - the cuts are primarily a result of $15 million in annual underfunding by the state. The un-American monitor however is to interfere with discretionary decisions made by a democratically-elected board whose majority members are Orthodox Jewish. The un-American monitor is meant to nullify the elections in which the Orthodox Jewish voters have a clear say."
